    Defiance with Daniel Craige

    Yes!...and I thought the portrayal was excellent. I am always fascinated by these glimpses into authoritarian societies and how people will do almost anything to be free and to survive to tell story. When society breaks down and rich and poor, professionals and workers, intelligent and...

    EXchange names for phone numbers

    :offtopic: ....but interesting! Did you know that when Alex Gramble invented the telephonic communications device - he thought that the best salutation should be, "Ahoy! Ahoy!". It was Tom Edson that first answered, "Hello!" And it stuck. Now you know the rest of the story...

    1950's & Early 60's TV Shows

    The first TV Show that I remember ever seeing was called, "The Rough Riders" (brought to you by 'Old Gold', Spin Filters!). I must have been only about four or five years old as the recollection was prior to my family's move south in 1959. I would guess 1958...

    Childhood Fears

    My biggest fear was "boom-boom" and lightning. As a little boy it used to really terrify me. It was probably about 1958 or 59, because I have a very vivid recollection of it at about age 4, that my Father took me out on the front porch of our house on Leroy Street in Binghamton, NY and...

    That one thing that you need to feel like yourself

    You here in Phoenix we have a famous philosopher that lives high up on the Camelback. His name is Vincent Fournier and he's a preachers son - so he must know. Here's what Vince once said about it: I NEED A HOUSEBOAT AND I NEED A PLANE, I NEED A BUTLER AND A TRIP TO SPAIN I NEED...

    That one thing that you need to feel like yourself

    My twenty-five year old Mont Blanc in my shirt pocket. It's amazing how naked I feel if I should ever leave home without it. That is a very rare occurance, I can tell you that - I'm distracted all day long! Oh yeh!.... and the 40mg of Wellbutrin every morning with strong coffee - so I don't...
